More about this scene

Since the 13th century there has been a market here, and the buildings in the town centre reflect a gentle change rather than a dramatic fluctuation of fortune at any one time. Single-storey dormered cottages sit comfortably with the later elegance of the flat-fronted Georgian house further along the street.
